Corruption is not just a moral turpitude, rather corruption is a predisposition of human psyche of which there is no cure. Once corrupt, always corrupt.

Those who defend JA Kufuor's corrupt predisposition will do well to understand his state of mind in abandoning his childhood affiliation with the Catholic Church in favour of the Free Masons. JA Kufuor will travel to wherever the road leads to fame and honour no matter the cost.

This is the man who was once the President of Ghana - immoral and unprincipled with no conviction of purpose.

Donald Trump belongs to the Klan and Barack Obama gay? All global power players are part of the Illuminati and they're out to cook us in a big bowl for dinner soup......And so what? Well, what's the difference between Catholics, Jews and Arabs when the survival of the Blackman comes up for a discussion? Let Kufuor enjoy his fraternity. He's got only one life to live. He can explain his choices to his Maker when they meet. But most certainly, I'm glad he's not a glorified homosexual or as dubious a character as some of our so-called Men of God, robbing the poor with impunity whilst shouting hallelujah. Neither does he come close to John Mahama the thieving maniac who didn't remember the taxpayers whose coins sponsored him from birth; having left them destitute, he'll do all to cut off their children from the same educational benefits that made him John Mahama.

Now, you are forcing a draw because the light has been shone on your occultic Kuffuor. And did I hear you refer to a "thieving maniac?" Wow, small boys are young indeed! I thought a babboon like you would check the records of the Panama Papers before pointing your leprosy finger at Mahama. Go and read, and get to know the bandits who looted Ghana's monies into secret off-shore accounts. An idiot like you cannot tell me you've also forgotten about Hotel de Waawaa! And neither can you explain how Kuffuor managed to shortchange Ghana in our oil percentage share allocations. In case you're so dumb to recall, there was an abominable entity known as the EO Group. Go and ask your harlot mother what that group got as their shares in comparison to Ghana. That's perhaps the most EVIL thing a person can do to a country he's supposed to be protecting. Cocaine dealers! Are you not ashamed that this country came to be called "The Cocaine Coast"??? I dare you to google and come back to tell me under whose tenure this occurred. Now, take a close look at your K4 in that Satanic uniform. That's the horrifying shame of someone who had dubiously portrayed himself as a clean, staunch Christian all these years. I only want to see the funeral service that would be conducted when he passes on. Maybe they'll be sacrificing the souls of worthless twerps like you since you seem to adore the Freemasons so much. Bye-bye!!!

Please, note that roman catholic does not sacrifice humans for material gains. That is why you don't see any catholic priest having personal assets because they are not to procreate nor to own properties. If you see roman catholic church members doing animalistic things, it does not mean that the church teaches such bad acts. If by mistake a priest does not behave well in societies and it results into tribal war like what happened in Rwanda and Burundi, it does not mean that roman Catholicism is for bad acts. Roman catholicism is for peace, unity, good service to humanity and brotherhood according Jesus Christ, our saviour. Roman catholic does not greedily chase members for regular billing for tithes like how other pentecoastal churches do share small sacks/envelopes to members for tithes. Any roman catholic church you see doing these, then it is polluted type of Catholicism.

They always take capture the minds of the weak 'coconuts' like K4 to do their bidding on our continent. It is pay back time for his selling out our nation - vodafone and all.....

Mugabe was one of them, till he touched on the land issue then he became public enemy number one....

Nkrumah went against the grain for the interest of his continent but, I guess this is too deep for many GHANAIANS to take in. K4 and many of his compatriots in Ghana and on our continent have sold out their souls to the devil and the day of reckoning will definitely not escape them.

I humbly salute you all.

Reading comments made so far on this subject, I wish to submit a few thoughts to alleviate to some degree the ignorance, confusion, and suspicion out there against the Masonic fraternity. The conspiracy out there is so much that it beggars believe amongst Freemasons themselves. But that is totally understandable considering the fraternities option for privacy or secrecy as some may see it. It's a fact of life that people are naturally suspicious of what is done behind closed doors.

It is critical that understands that there are two main types of Freemasons:
1. Regular and
2. Irregular

Regular Freemasonry, of which President Kuffour is a Past Worshipful Master and now honoured as a Grand Warden, is governed by the United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE). Regular Freemasonry is a fraternal organisation that inculcates or teaches principles and values for living as decent human being, as promoted in all Scriptures: BROTHERHOOD, CHARITY, TREATING YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BEING WITH DIGNITY, BEAUTY, EXCELLENCE, etc . They draw heavily on Biblical themes to highlight or teach important principles of life, so it makes it look like a religion, but it is not. Yes it is religious in its outlook, but it isn't a faith. By virtue of its principles and character as a noble order, it attracts men of a certain calibre, and aims to make them better men by the lessons it teaches them. It is not for all, and neither does it admit just any one who applies to its membership. One has to believe in God and not have any criminal convictions. I was only a human school teacher when I was admitted to membership.

As I've mentioned earlier, Freemasonry is not a faith, though for some, it teaches suffices in the act of deepening one's relationship with God. To be honest, all that Freemasons are taught is how to be a better man, no matter your religious or political affiliations or background. Principles like generosity of heart to your fellow man, fidelity to one's promises and commitments, caution in business, respecting the laws of your country, and striving to be excellent in whatever state of life you find yourself, are strongly reinforced in their teachings.

Members of REGULAR Freemasonry are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN from speculating into the the occult, contrary to what conspiracy theorist would like to suggest or have us believe.

Having gone through the ranks to the highest levels of Freemasonry, I can honestly place my hands on my heart and say that I personally have found nothing in the fraternity that is contrary to my Christian faith, but I know many will dispute this due to deeply seated suspicions. Yes, It uses allegorical or symbolic plays as its method of teaching, and to the casual observer, these plays may appear odd. However this is not so at all! They teach such beautiful lessons about life.

The main criticism against freemasonry by the Church include the following:

1. That it's teachings suggest that by doing good works or being a good person, one will gain access to heaven. This is known as PELIGIANISM.
Freemasons respond to this by saying that for salvation, they point people to their own faith. All they aim to do is highlight the practical aspects that is common to all faiths, being a good and decent human being.

2. That it promotes the view that all religions are the same. This is known as INDIFFERENTISM.
Freemasons respond by saying that they do not promote any particular religious faith. They leave that choice to the individual.

3. That Freemasonry is a mixture of different faiths. This is known as SYNCRETISM.
Freemasonry does take the wisdom of different paths, but it does not present it as a faith. An example is when one gives a proverb in our culture to illustrate a point.

4. That Freemasonry exists to undermine or erode influence of the Catholic Church.
This allegation developed in Freemasonry in Continental Europe which was quite vociferous against the abuses in the Catholic Church. English Freemasonry to which President Kuffour belongs does not have this agenda.

There are other charges against Freemasonry such as DEISM, RELATIVISM, etc... but the society states clearly that this matters of faith are beyond its scope. They leave matters of faith to the individual.

Another important distinction is Irregular Freemasonry, which is different kettle of fish and much more complicated. It is not regulated by the United Grand Lodge of England (U.G.L.E), and what goes on behind the closed doors of their lodges is left to anyone's imagination. There are fringe dimensions of any human enterprise, be it religion or politics.

Former President John Kuffour, with other prominent leaders in Ghana, is a decorated member of the REGULAR Freemasons. I was honoured to sit in lodge meetings with some of them. I only deferred obediently to leaders of my faith who understand the theological implications of Masonic principles differently. I sadly resigned my lodge membership.

Lessons I learnt from freemasonry has made me a better Christian. I value my Christian faith much much more and understand that I need to strike a good balance life at all times: work, pleasure, service to God and my fellow man must be appropriately attended to.

I believe it is only fair that this distinction is made in order not to fan the flames of conspiracy theorists, or cast a dim view on our former president for his association with this noble order.
To my understanding, he is an Anglican.

I hope this helps.

Money was the Kuffour mian focus in life. He lied to his wife and all those around him in securing the Accra Mall for his daughter, Regent Hotel for himself and golden award when school children were being educated under the tree under his nose. Oblivious about the poverty Ghana was facing in his time and used state funds to renovate his own house claiming that he was using his house as his main office.Today Kuffour you see no one is chasing your soul but yourself. How many more years have you got on this earth. Judgement day is reckoning very fast. Isn't it? Being a freemason will not save your soul. The only thing that would save you is giving all your wealth to the poor and needy ie the vulnerable children and families in Ghana. This is where if there is any blessing you will get.

Just go back to our traditional religions, which we all have been taught are BAD and EVIL. But, the world is upside down, where good is bad and white is black. So much evil has been done in the name of the catholic church. Catholics feel threatened and challenged by the way Freemasons organize themselves and are good with money.

But truth be told, over the last 2000 years, the Catholic church probably did more damage than the Freemasons did. Maybe in today's world, it is the opposite, as many Freemasons have been in power and led the world to horrible wars. E.g. Bush and Blair are both Freemasons. Both made war on Iraq based on false information. This is only one example.

Bottom line, re-educate yourself. Go back to your roots. Renounce all these religions and take up your own traditional religion, if you want to have religion. It is not BAD. It is just misunderstood, and misrepresented.

A president or former President of Ghana must ideally remain in Ghana and help with the governance of the country. By accepting the position in the English Masonic lodge Kufuor ceases to be a Ghanaian and must therefore lose all rights and privileges accorded former leaders of Ghana.

In Ghana we believe that the African is capable of managing his own affairs but we acknowledge our collective deficiencies in knowledge.

The Queen of England barred British judges from becoming freemasons. If the Queen took that action then why should still Kufuor enjoy his right and privileges within the Ghana and the African continent.

Kufuor must lose access to all sensitive information regarding the government of Ghana and the African Union.

Kwabena, it is a very necessary publication, to make you aware of what our so-called leaders get up to with their slave masters.......

The chickens are now coming home to roost.........I always knew K4 was under the influence of his slave masters. Yes! Being so-called trained in Oxford.

That is why he sold our rich natural resources on the cheap to his masters and made ignorant GHANAIANS believe they were good deals.

They always take capture the minds of the weak 'coconuts' like K4 to do their bidding on our continent. It is pay back time for his selling out our nation - vodafone and all.....

Mugabe was one of them, till he touched on the land issue then he became public enemy number one....

Nkrumah went against the grain for the interest of his continent but, I guess this is too deep for many GHANAIANS to take in. K4 and many of his compatriots in Ghana and on our continent have sold out their souls to the devil and the day of reckoning will definitely not escape them.

GOD BLESS GHANA!

Brothers and sisters, I humbly salute you all. Reading some of the comments made so far on this subject, I have felt compelled to submit a few thoughts to alleviate to some degree the ignorance, confusion, and suspicion out there against the Masonic fraternity. This conspiracy out there is so much that it beggars believe amongst Freemasons themselves! But that is totally understandable, considering the fraternities option for privacy or secrecy as some may see it. It's a fact of life that people are naturally suspicious of what is done behind closed doors.

It is critical that understands that there are two main types of Freemasons:

1. Regular and 2. Irregular Regular Freemasonry, of which President Kuffour is a Past Worshipful Master and now honoured as a Grand Warden, is governed by the United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE).

Regular Freemasonry is a fraternal organisation that inculcates or teaches principles and values for living as decent human being, as promoted in all Scriptures: BROTHERHOOD, CHARITY, TREATING YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BEING WITH DIGNITY, BEAUTY, EXCELLENCE, etc. They draw heavily on Biblical themes to highlight or teach important principles of life, so it makes it look like a religion, but it is not. Yes it is religious in its outlook, but it isn't a faith. True that by virtue of its principles and character as a noble order, it attracts men of a certain calibre, and aims to make them better men by the lessons it teaches them. It is not for all, and neither does it admit just any one who applies to its membership. One has to believe in God and not have any criminal convictions. I was only a human school teacher when I was admitted to membership.

As I've mentioned earlier, Freemasonry is not a faith, though for some, what teaches suffices in the act of deepening one's relationship with God. To be honest, all that Freemasons are taught is how to be a better man, no matter your religious or political affiliations or background. Principles like generosity of heart to your fellow man, fidelity to one's promises and commitments, caution in business, respecting the laws of your country, and striving to be excellent in whatever state of life you find yourself, are strongly reinforced in their teachings.

Members of REGULAR Freemasonry are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN from speculating into the the occult, contrary to what conspiracy theorist would like to suggest or have us believe. Having gone through the ranks to the highest levels of Freemasonry, I can honestly place my hands on my heart and say that I personally have found nothing in the fraternity that is contrary to my Christian faith, but I know many will dispute this due to deeply seated suspicions and misinformation.

Yes, It uses allegorical or symbolic plays as its method of teaching, and to the casual observer, these plays may appear odd. However this is not so at all! They teach or communicate such beautiful lessons about life.

The main criticism against freemasonry by the Church include the following:

1. That it's teachings suggest that by doing good works or being a good person, one will gain access to heaven. This is known as PELIGIANISM. Freemasons respond to this by saying that for salvation, they point people to their own faith. All they aim to do is highlight the practical aspects that is common to all faiths, being a good and decent human being.

2. That it promotes the view that all religions are the same. This is known as INDIFFERENTISM. Freemasons respond by saying that they do not promote any particular religious faith. They leave that choice to the individual.

3. That Freemasonry is a mixture of different faiths. This is known as SYNCRETISM. Freemasonry does take the wisdom of different paths, but it does not present it as a faith. An example is when one gives a proverb in our culture to illustrate a point.

4. That Freemasonry exists to undermine or erode influence of the Catholic Church. This allegation developed in Freemasonry in Continental Europe which was quite vociferous against the abuses in the Catholic Church. English Freemasonry to which President Kuffour belongs does not have this agenda.

There are indeed other charges against Freemasonry such as DEISM, RELATIVISM, etc... but the society states clearly that this matters of faith are beyond its scope. They leave matters of faith to the individual. Of course outside faith, Freemasons are also accused of criminal under dealings, and aiding and abetting corruption. I guess whilst this not a doctrine of the society, it's only fair to say that there's bound to be corruption in any human organisation.

The other distinction as mentioned above is Irregular Freemasonry, which is a different kettle of fish and much more complicated. It is not regulated by the United Grand Lodge of England (UGLE), and what goes on behind the closed doors of their lodges is left to anyone's imagination. Regular Freemasons are banned from its membership. There is bound to be fringe dimensions of any human enterprise, be it religion or politics. This is a natural reality.

Former President John Kuffour, with other prominent leaders in Ghana, is a decorated member of the REGULAR Freemasons. I was honoured to sit in lodge meetings with some of them for a few years. I only deferred obediently to leaders of my faith who understand the theological implications of Masonic principles differently. I sadly resigned my lodge membership. Lessons I learnt from freemasonry has made me a better Christian. I value my Christian faith much much more and understand that I need to strike a good balance in life at all times - work, pleasure, service to God and my fellow man must be appropriately attended to.

I believe it is only fair that this distinction is made in order not to fan the flames of conspiracy theorists, or cast a dim view on our former president for his association with this noble order. To my understanding, he is an Anglican.

I hope this helps an objective reader, and the fair minded.

God bless.

Thanks for your effort to teach what the Freemasons is all about. In your submission you stated one is accepted into the fraternity having no criminal record. Kufour was and is not a clean man. Look at the murders; the Ya-Naa and his chiefs, Rojo, school children, the women etc. The immoral life of Kufour destroying marriages. Some of the women are single now becsuse their marriages have been sold to Kufour. When his Iraqi wife answered questions put to her by the late Komla Dumor about the hotel, we all heard her said that the owner of the hotel wept bitterly when he realised that he had to part with his project. Is that not criminal. The late Jake Obetsebi Lamptey covered Kufour putting his hands deep into our money to rebuild his house. Are these not crimes. He grabbed properties for his family and they now hold a strong off-shore accounts. Is this what your fraternity is calling a better man.
By the way how did the fraternity assess this Kufour not to have a criminal record. Some sections of Ghanaians call him a statesman but that name is a mockery.
